Double sided cards

I have created 2 double sided cards this past weekend.  We started up our monthly card swaps again and the theme was to create a Fall or Autumn card.  I had no clue what to make and I also had a whole month to think of it.  As usual I made it the day before it was due.  I wanted to create something different and special and decided to make it this way.  This is my third card creating it this same way.  I actually really liked it when I was done and didn't want to swap it with anyone else.  The other card was created for a friend for her daughters birthday.  I wasn't sure when her birthday was but found out when I gave it to her that it already past.  Oh well I had fun making then.  I know it's a lot of work but my heart was in it to finish.  I hope she liked it.  I think I'll be making a special one for myself and this time not giving it away.  I'm actually thinking of creating more cards and starting an Etsy account to sell them.  We'll see how that goes.  As for now I'll keep on trying to get my mojo back in full gear!  Thanks for stopping by and have a great rest of the week!

Random cards

I made these cards a while ago but didn't get the chance to post them.    I never got to use this stamp "Flower Fest" and finally decided to use it.  Sorry the photos are a little blurry and again used my phone to take the photos.  Trying to get my mojo back but is sure taking a long while.   Thanks for stopping by and hope to get back into the crafting mode again soon. 
This wedding card was made for a friend a while ago.

Simply Sweet Addictions

It's been a long while since my last post on my blog.  I've been in a slump and actually created some stuff but didn't take any pictures of them.  If you have noticed I have changed my blog name to "Simply Sweet Addictions".  I used to collect tons of bears and that was how my blog name came about then.  So since I create stuff that is "addicting" and love to bake sweets I decided to change it.  Anyway here I made some favors to hold my favorite candy skittles.  I can't remember what site I saw the tutorial to make this but it holds the candy perfectly well.   I also got a few new stamps from Island Paperie below while I was on Maui for a short vacation.  I used them to make the card below.  Wow it's been quite sometime too since I've last made a card too.  Hope to be back in the swing of crafting but thanks for stopping by today and Have a Great Week!

Hello Kitty Gift bag

 Yay! It's my second post for the month.  Actually beat last month at least any way I created this last minute especially since today is the party.  I used a plain white gift bag and decorated it with Hello Kitty.  Her theme is Hello Kitty so I thought this was perfect!  I cut the Hello Kitty, name and bow with my Silhouette machine.  I so love this machine!  Thanks for stopping by checking out my post for today!  Have a Great Weekend!


Orange Dreamsicle Cupcakes

This is not a post of paper crafts but instead posting a picture of the cupcakes that I baked today.  I  felt like baking so I baked some "Orange Dreamsicle" cupcakes today.  It turned it really good especially since this was the first time making this flavor.  I think I'm adding this to my list for sure!  Gonna try to paper craft tonight because I need to make several birthday cards.  Thanks for checking out my dessert today.  Have a great day!!

Picture Frames

 It's been a while since my last post of creations since I've been really busy the past months.  These are samples of 4 different picture frames that everyone will be able to pick from to make.  At our company summer picnic every year we have some kind of crafts for everyone to make.  This year this is what I came up with.  I cut out everything with both my Silhouette and Eclips machines and prepared everything.  The only thing that everyone will need to put together is the frame itself.  All the little add on's cut from my silhouette are already prepared with foam stickers already.  It sure is alot of work to prepare and can't wait until it's all done.  The picnic is this Saturday!  Yay!!  After this I can finally go back to creating for myself.  lol  Thanks for stopping by to check this out and Have a Great Week!

Mother's Day Purses

 It's been a while since my last post.  I have been so crazy busy in the past couple months but actually found some time to make these cute little purses for Mother's Day.  Of course I created it last minute but it's the thought that counts..right.  These were cut from my Silhouette machine.  It actually measures 5"w x 4-1/2" tall. Had fun making these and for a change from working on work stuff these past months.  I'm almost done with work stuff and hopefully can get back to more crafts again.  Thanks for stopping by to check out these cute purses.

Gift Bag Idea

Trying to get my mojo back!  Here is a gift bag that I created making post it note holders in 3 different sizes.  I've also included a flourescent yellow highlighter with a pink sharpie pen.  Not included is a ruler that I wanted to put in this bag but didn't have time to look for it when I took this picture.  Yes I've been in a copic coloring mood again.  I'm having fun making these while my mojo is back.  I didn't make this for a specific person but if anyone is interested in a gift bag for some one, email me and I might have just what you need.  I'm just getting ahead of myself incase you want to give a mother this package for "Mothers Day" for her desk.  As you can see I've used various images in this package.  Hope you all have a wonderful rest of the week!  Take Care and thanks for stopping by.

Bunny Lucy Favors

Here are some last minute favors that I made using Bunny Lucy.  I was going to color them using photoshop but decided to color it myself with my copics.  I didn't do a great job at it but oh well it was  last minute anyway and I got to pick the colors that I wanted for them.  Hope you all had a great Easter@ Have a Great Week.

Easter card and tag

Wow this is a fast card that I made today. This was cut with my Eclips machine. I've been getting spoiled and cutting with my Eclips and Silhouette machine makes things much more easier and I just love it. I need to get my act together and start making more cards for myself. I need to make alot of all different cards because I always seem to be looking for a card for a party. Thanks for checking out my creations and Have a Great Week.
